[Gluster-users] rsync and glusterfs

I'm using 2.0.0rc8 on openSuse.  I have a system of four servers combined
via distribute (I can send volfiles if anyone wants to see).  I have been
using rsync to transfer some files over to a glusterfs volume from an nfs
server.  I use a command like:

rsync -av dir host1:/mnt/glusterfs/

This is working fine.  However, when I stopped the process and then
restarted the rsync process using:

rsync -av dir host2:/mnt/glusterfs/

the files are rewritten for some reason.  If I then stop the process and go
back to host1, the already-copied files are appropriately skipped.  In other
words, rsync treats the files differently based on what client did the
original writing.  Any suggestions as to what is going on?

Thanks,
Sean
